No anti sith abilities?

Why are there so many specific anti jedi abilities but no anti sith abilities in the game?
Dooku's counterattack is a nightmare in early to mid game, Maul's AOE is quite formidable even before patch, sidious is devastating just based on his healing immunity and now we have Kylo Ren who seems to be the next OP character.
If those 4 are in a team with a healer, who do you focus fire to kill off first?
In the movies there are characters that are capable in fighting siths like Obi Wan, Luke, Anakin, Yoda, Windu etc but they are either not in the game, not jedi yet (Luke) or have no anti sith abilities. In my opinion, it will be nice if Kit Fisto, Windu and Anakin get buffs against sith.

Oh i forgot, please consider liam neeson too to get buff since he is obi wan jedi master n he is one of the important characters in star wars universe.
Have a good day ea and enjoy ur revenue on finn n kylo packs.
May the Force be with u
Liam Neeson played Qui Gon Jin. Ewen McGregor played Obi Wan Kenobi in films 1-3.
I voted for this.
Windu is absolutely one of the strongest character in the starwars universe.
In the story Windu can beat the sith lord without much effort but in this game he is weaker than a padawan.
I dont care about barriss nerfed but Windu still got no buff annoy me.
There's a ton of characters that have skills and abilities that don't necessarily fit their canon portrayal. That being said, Yoda (who defeated Dooku on Geonosis), ROTS Obi Wan, Jedi Knight Anakin (who defeated Dooku on Grievace's ship), and Luke are potential toons that that should/could easily fit the bill.
I disagree that Anakin should have anti-sith abilities. He' s not anti-sith at all he's just really good at killing.
Should this not be somehow better balanced?
What is the message in ethics if EA makes the dark Side stronger then the light side?
I think if you want to be good you need count dooku. His 100% riposte is ridiculus. And you need the Darth sidius with him anti heal.
Both are alone a nightmare.
If I compare Luke with IK-86, ik 86 has better damage plus can call other party members in.
Luke seems to be somewhat weaker in his desk role.
I am a bit sceptical this should be this way.
Daka first
If maul and sidious are on the same team -- I will go for whichever has the lowest HP. Usually it's maul and he will die in 2-3 hits. Then I go to sidious because that heal immune is a PITA.
Basically, the more hateful and battle hungry his opponent is, the stronger Mace becomes. Which would mean he should be able to entirely dominate opponents like Darth Maul. Indeed, he even subdued Sidious.
The downside would be the incredible danger of exposing yourself to the Dark side. Mace's padawan Depa Billaba consequentially fell to the darkness and Mace had to seek her out and kill her.
Another candidate for an anti Sith ability might be Plo Koon, who's portrayed as being extremely stalwart even for a Jedi. He has battled a lot of Sith or Dark side force sensitive warriors in the comics (not sure if any of them are canon anymore), among them Asajj Ventress, Darth Maul and Savage Oppress.
Both Mace and Plo Koon are rather lacklustre at the moment and I for one would love to see either of them turned into an anti Sith hero.
You must never have seen the movies. Your post couldn't be further from the truth. Even if it were true gameplay/balance > lore.
For non canon, there are quite a few rather strong jedis who are able to fight with sith well, like kyle katarn from the new jedi order, revan from the old republic etc Hope that they will be in this game as well!
Also in the Clone Wars telly series (where Eeth Koth, Savage Oppress and Ima-Gun Di appear) there's LOTS of battles between various Jedi and Sith... No reason to just stick with the movies.
I still think Mace would make the most sense to revamp as a Sith slayer though. And speaking of which, at some point we're getting Jango too... Right? Right?
Aside from that, expect this to change. The game HEAVILY favors darkside toons right now with Sith toons being on point. Expect new toons with anti-Sith capabilities to be introduced for a modest fee.
Leia is currently broken; and there's no viable way of gaining stars for either of those toons. As a result even those with 4* versions will be replacing them with 7* toons. I haven't faced a Jedi or lightside dominated team in the top 50 since the order 66 patch. I'm sure they exist....but they're rare.
You must not spend much time in the top 50. Leia is used by every P2W player because of her bug.
Nobody on my server uses Leia. I'm in the top 50 and I've used 0 fights today, I've made top 10 a couple times and there are only a handful that I haven't fought. Most of the top players on my server lean towards sith teams although there are a couple lead by qu gon/lumi who are the true elite. Still top 50 is mostly sid led. The sid/kylo/Vader combo is quite strong.
The problem is that Leia and Lando are even more powerful than Windu, Anakin etc?
I've never finished my day in less than top 50. It's why I qualified my statement with that ranking. I RARELY encounter Leia and as time goes by I see fewer and fewer chromium only toons as people realize it's possible for a 7* f2p toon to instagib a 4* chromium only toon.
